Galen is sent in as bqckup to another delicious Hero for Hire, Zach. When he gets there, he is astonished at the speed of the feelings he develops for Gemma, the sister of the kidnap victim. However, it turns out the sister that cried she was kidnapped has a lot of secrets she is hiding. Very exciting and suspenseful book. Just how I love them!

I voluntarily reviewed an arc of this book and I absolutely loved it.
Galen’s Gemma is fast-paced and well-written, the storyline is well thought out and packed with plenty of drama, action and intrigue. Galen and Gemma have an immediate connection between them and as they try to protect Gemma’s sister and niece. Wonderfully entertaining.
Smart Sister
Any woman with an older sister knows that there are benefits to being younger… As the youngest of three sisters, I learned from both their mistakes and their victories, thus able to make better choices as I grew older. Yet, I was also left behind because they didn’t want younger me hanging out with more mature them. Having watched my older siblings be hurt by the catty things teenagers say and do to each other, I became adept at choosing and making a different kind of friends who were a little weird, but more adventurous and reliable whenever I needed help from people outside my family.
When the husband of Gemma’s older sister, Rebecca, is murdered at the beer company where he worked and then their home is broken into, Gemma realizes that Rebecca and her daughter, Becky, may also be in danger and hatches a plan to keep them safe. Galen, having just returned to the Legendary Securities compound in Texas from his assignment with Johann and Joy, is quickly assigned to go to Germany, meet up with coworker Zack, and rescue Rebecca and Becky, who have suddenly disappeared and are presumed to have been kidnapped by persons unknown. Gemma’s planning and organization skills, as well as the location and cohorts she chooses for their sanctuary, are not at all what I expected. When Galen finds them, even though they had never met before, he and Gemma recognize and respect the value of each other’s skills and work together to solve the problems that just keep coming at them. Great story line with lots of twists and turns.

Another great read in this series.
Rebecca was a piece of work, what a witch. Galen along with Rebecca’s sister Gemma were almost side characters in this one as Rebecca kept my attention. I actually wanted someone to shoot her.
In hiding after a murder of Rebecca’s husband, were they all in danger or is the dangerous party in their midst?
This story had one drama after another. Such an entertaining book, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Galen’s Gemma is packed full of adventure, friendships, love and happiness. Everything you love and somethings you dont are here. Page after page I was enthralled. A definite must read for all book lovers.
One of the best parts of this book is when Ice comes out to give Galen his assignment. We get to see just a bit of how her pregnancy is going.
Zack is a contact that Levi and Ice want to work with and he has a problem. Well technically it’s not his problem, but the woman involved is like a little sister to him. Since Harrison has to do some more behind the scenes work on the Museum thing, Galen is the best choice to head out to Germany.
Zack and Galen hit it off pretty well, but find their quarry is gone.
Gemma’s brother-in-law Joe has been murdered and her sister Rebecca is in denial big time. Their house had been broken into and Rebecca keeps insisting it was simply a burglary gone wrong. Gemma knows better and her priority is to keep Rebecca and her daughter Becky safe. She knows it’s going to get dangerous and she’s going to need help. For now though they need to get to Joe’s cabin, get a bit of rest before continuing on.
Gemma isn’t pleased to find Rebecca has called Zack while she was getting gas. She wasn’t happy to find he wasn’t alone either or that they would meet up with them at Joe’s cabin.
I have to admit I like Gemma’s contacts, and also the compound she brought them to after the cabin. She had spent many a summer on that property. A happy time for her and their is plenty to keep little Becky happy as well.
The guys find they like Tim the owner, even though he seems to have quite and arsenal on the premises. Also good to know Tim is a Veteran and will help keep everyone safe while they are there.
Gemma has plenty of love for her family and is proactive in every thing she does. Her niece Becky is adorable but even at her young age she gravitates more toward Gemma than her mother. I mean seriously, who names their daughter after themselves?
So much intrigue and mystery surrounds Joe’s death and Rebecca isn’t helping at all. It seems like a twist happened on every other page. Not to mention the growing attraction between Galen and Gemma that simmers them sizzles.
I can’t wait to read the next book in this series, ‘Zack’s Zest’. The tease at the end of this book was perfect.
I thought that this was a good read and a solid entry in this series. Galen and Gemma were likable and I felt they made a fun couple. The story keeps you entertained with a blend of drama, danger, action, mystery, murder, romance and excitement. This is my frank, freely posted review.
What an exciting, suspenseful story that also includes deceit, loyalty, romance, family dynamics, and so much more. I loved how the story unfolded although the relationship between Gemma and her sister Rebecca was something else. Amazing how two people growing up in the same family can be so different, although this does happen. You will be kept on the edge of your seat from the beginning to the end.
Galen is just a regular guy who recently left the military and is working for Ice and her husband. Since Galen is so new to the company, his assignment is to back up Zak investigating a possible murder at a German brewery. The dead man’s wife sides with the police who are calling it a B&E. Her sister, Gemma, disagrees packing up her sister and niece then go into hiding.
Lots of intrigue, multiple kidnappings, increasing numbers of dead bodies and a complicated story line kept me interested. Best thing about this story is Galen and how he treats Gemma!

Galen is a little concern that Rebecca is Zack’s ex and how that will affect their mission. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. I love the twists and turns in this story. I also appreciate how Gemma takes the lead on keeping her family safe and how Galen respects her choices. I love strong woman like Gemma who don’t wait for rescue. It was also interesting to see the community that Gemma choses to keep them safe. I love the addition of Becky to the story who was just an adorable young girl. This is an engrossing story that kept me guessing on the source of danger.
I truly enjoyed this book so many twists and turns and wondering what is going on. Kept me hooked the entire time, plus a little romance tossed in the the suspense is always a bonus. I really hope Zack gets a book. Would love to see him get his deserved happiness.
This kept me on my toes trying to work out Rebecca gosh how different the sisters were. It did make me wonder about parentage honestly. Exciting plot with lots going on and a cute little girl who has ended up in the middle of things no child her age should. It is fairly complex and takes a long time to start getting the pieces put together, not that it is slow or in a bad way but it definitely builds the suspense up. Great characters, even the bad guys. This is a fast paced read and one I thoroughly enjoyed sinking into, plenty of action and when it settles a bit you get the cute. Loved it.
Zack needed help so Levi asked Galen to assist him. Little did Galen realize how much help Zack really needed. Wow! Talk about family dynamics, this story takes it to a whole new level. The changes just kept coming so it was really difficult to put this book down, in a good way!. So I loved the mystery, adventure and some of the characters. Others were meant to be disliked so I did that too! There was honor, loyalty and love amidst the reversal of those same topics. It’s difficult to write about this story without giving something away. The romance is always a plus along with solving the puzzles presented. I definitely enjoyed the road traveled while reading this book.
The epilogue talks of Zack’s next adventure. Looks like he will be searching for a person who has disappeared but her home base is a sailing boat so where to begin? Maybe in Turkey where her father has been kidnapped. Very exciting!
Zack receives a call from Rebecca, a girlfriend from long ago that she is in trouble. Levi asks Galen to help Zack and they meet up with Rebecca’s sister Gemma. Gemma is taking her sister and her niece Becky on the run until she feels her sister and niece are no longer in danger. Her sister’s husband had been murdered and the police never caught anyone. While they go to a commune Gemma spent every summer at as a child her sister is kidnapped. After that comes the confusing problem of figuring out what is going on and who is involved. All the while trying to keep Becky safe.

Wow.. talk about dysfunctional family dynamics. Galen is backing up Zack in this book, and meets Gemma and her Sister, Rebecca.
There is some history between Zack and Rebecca, which is a little concerning to Galen.
Get ready for a wild ride of betrayal, deception, and murder.
Putting this book down was NOT and option until I finished it.
Fantastic read.
This was a great story. Gemma is a strong, take charge person who will do anything to protect her family. Galen sees and admires that strength which is something Gemma is not used to. I also love the relationship between Gemma and her niece.

I swear Gemma’s sister got on my last nerve. Gemma needs angel wings for listening to her, putting up with her, and saving her! I absolutely adored Galen in Keane’s book and I love him in his own story. The quiet, the strength, the common sense, the leadership it just all seeps out of this book. Yes I think out of all the books I am in love with Galen. He deserved someone strong, intelligent, with a mind of their own and Gemma fit the bill completely. Love this couple. Its like Ice and Levi for me. (if you don’t know who they are you are missing out on a lot). There were twist, turns, and such an adorable little girl. Gemma’s niece, Becky. There is murder and surprise ending. Gemma’s sister, Rebecca, besides getting on my nerves, is one self centered, whacko. Just goes to prove you can grow up in the same house hold and still have your own sense, your own life. Well done Dale Mayer! Thank you for the arc Dale Mayer and Booksprout. I freely volunteer my thoughts and opinions.

Galen and his mate Kane goes looking for them and to help solve the murder. With twist and turns Galen & Gemma somehow have the time to fall in love, set on new pathways with fingers crossed on a BRIGHTER future.
Galen is sent to assist Zack with a case involving a brewery, where the manager has been shot. What they find is not what was expected. Gemma is strong, quick witted, resourceful and so very different from her sister. Galen is instantly drawn to her. This book has mystery, murder and kidnapping in it. It’s a great read.
